Our approach to SQE2

We believe in mistake driven learning & interactive tutor teaching. We may knock you down to build you back up. It can be stressful & tough but ultimately in your best interests to achieve success.

We understand that you have a high workload at your firm. Your study time is going to be limited & needs to be correctly focused & critically managed. Our system is designed for people just like you.

We want you to pass as many of our extremely tough mock exams as possible in the run up to the real thing. Passing the SQE2 exam is the holy grail.

We are SQE2 experts. We will take you out of your comfort zone to a greater understanding of the challenges to pass. Knowledge is not enough! You must know how to correctly & comprehensively apply your knowledge in a practical setting.

Our tutors & crafted mock exams will push you hard to expose the holes in your knowledge, practical skills & exam techniques. We intend to exponentially improve your SQE2 exam readiness. You are highly unlikely to be able to achieve this threshold without our 1-to-1 training.

Fernando Gragera
I wouldn't have achieved these results without your assistance
While self-preparation is possible for SQE1, I firmly believe that extensive practice with mock exams is essential for SQE2. I wouldn’t have achieved these results without the assistance of OSCEsmart (now Academy of Smart Lawyers).

To pass the SQE2, you can't rely solely on books; doing mocks is crucial

To pass the SQE2, you can’t rely solely on books; doing mocks is crucial. One-to-one SQE2 mocks help you prepare for the intense exam environment and time pressure. They give you a clear idea of what to expect.

I took many mock exams, and they were very useful

I took many mock exams with OSCEsmart (now Academy of Smart Lawyers), and they were very useful. They gave me a good idea of the exam format and how to structure my answers correctly.

OSCEsmart offers various subscription options
OSCEsmart (Academy of Smart Lawyers) has various subscription options, so even a stand-alone mock can be helpful just before the exam. I also used to practise on my own, but practising with your tutors is truly unparalleled. I’m so glad to have had your team guiding me through this process.

I’m very happy with the preparation!

I prepared for the SQE2 using OSCEsmart (now Academy of Smart Lawyers), incorporating the CILEx past papers and 1-to-1 mock exams. Your mocks were harder and more extensive than the actual exam, enhancing my exam technique proficiency. … I’m very happy with the preparation!
